Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
This is the house: David perhaps had some assurance that this was the place on which God designed that His house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a structure. 1 Chronicles 21:18-28, Genesis 28:17, Deuteronomy 12:5-7, Deuteronomy 12:11, 2 Samuel 24:18, 2 Chronicles 3:1, 2 Chronicles 6:5, 2 Chronicles 6:6, Psalms 78:60, Psalms 78:67-69, Psalms 132:13, Psalms 132:14, John 4:20-22
and this is the altar: 2 Kings 18:22, 2 Chronicles 32:12
Reciprocal: Genesis 46:11 - Levi 2 Samuel 24:24 - So David 1 Chronicles 3:11 - Ahaziah 2 Chronicles 11:16 - to sacrifice Ezra 2:68 - in his place Zechariah 9:7 - a Jebusite Matthew 25:16 - went Acts 13:36 - served

But the angel of the Lord stopped him. The angel called from heaven and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" Abraham answered, "Yes?"
The angel said, "Don't kill your son or hurt him in any way. Now I can see that you do respect and obey God. I see that you are ready to kill your son, your only son, for me."
So Abraham gave that place a name, "The Lord Provides." Even today people say, "On the mountain of the Lord , he will give us what we need."
The Lord saw Moses was coming to look at the bush. So he called to him from the bush. He said, "Moses, Moses!" Moses said, "Yes, Lord."
Then the Lord said to Moses, "I will cause food to fall from the sky. This food will be for you to eat. Every day the people should go out and gather the food they need that day. I will do this to see if they will do what I tell them.
And you must remember the entire trip that the Lord your God has led you through these 40 years in the desert. He was testing you. He wanted to make you humble. He wanted to know what is in your heart. He wanted to know if you would obey his commands.
In the desert he fed you manna—something your ancestors had never seen. He tested you to make you humble so that everything would go well for you in the end.
Don't listen to them, because the Lord your God is testing you. He wants to know if you love him with all your heart and all your soul.
I will use them to test the Israelites. I will see if the Israelites can keep the Lord 's commands as their ancestors did."
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then David said,.... Within himself, or to some principal persons about him:
this is the house of the Lord God; the place where the temple was to be built, hinted at in Deuteronomy 12:5 and elsewhere; the meaning is, here, or in "this" place, shall be the house of God, so Noldius o, for as yet there were none; but it was now made known to David that here it should be built, and so the words in 2 Chronicles 3:1 should be rendered,
then Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, which was shown to David his father, which he prepared in the place of David, that which he bought in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite: and this is the altar for the burnt offering for Israel; not which he had built here; but this is the place where one should be built for the people of Israel to bring their offerings to, and to be here offered for them by the priests: this he said by a divine impulse upon his mind, or which he concluded from the acceptance of his sacrifice here, signified by fire that came down from heaven and consumed it; and this being in the threshingfloor of the Jebusites, might prefigure the church of God to be built up among the Gentiles.
o Ebr. Concord. Part. p. 352. No. 1257.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This is the house of the Lord God - The double miracle - that of the angelic appearance and that of the fire from heaven - had convinced David that here he had found the destined site of that “house” which it had been told him that his son should build 1 Chronicles 22:10. Hence, this public announcement.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXII
David makes great preparations for building a temple to the
Lord, 1-5;
gives the necessary directions to Solomon concerning it, 6-16;
and exhorts the princes of Israel to assist in the undertaking,
17-19.
NOTES ON CHAP. XXII
Verse 1 Chronicles 22:1. David said, This is the house of the Lord — Till a temple is built for his name, this place shall be considered the temple of God; and on this altar, and not on that at Gibeon, shall the burnt-offerings of Israel be made. David probably thought that this was the place on which God designed that his house should be built; and perhaps it was this that induced him to buy, not only the threshing-floor, but probably some adjacent ground also, as Calmet supposes, that there might be sufficient room for such a building.
